The News & Observer traces its roots to a paper called the Sentinal, founded in Raleigh in 1865 and later absorbed by The Observer and then merged with The News. The News & Observer was purchased at auction in 1894 by Josephus Daniels, who later served as secretary of the Navy under President Woodrow Wilson and ambassador to Mexico under Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Daniels family owned the paper until 1995, when it was purchased by McClatchy. A company with deep roots in the Triangle, The News & Observer Publishing Co. is a modern information company that publishes news and information in both digital and print formats to serve a growing market. Our publications include The News & Observer, one of the nation’s best regional newspapers, and 10 bi-weekly community newspapers.

The News & Observer is widely regarded as one of the nation's best regional newspapers and places a strong emphasis on investigative reporting and watchdog journalism.
